After a neighbor finks on the prim Mrs. Marlowe for harboring mice--a crime in this cat-populated world--she must fool two police detectives into believing that the vermin are her sworn enemies. Like its similarly entertaining companion Mr. Maxwell's Mouse, this book's handsome digital illustrations feature impeccably dressed, upright felines set against stately brown and gray Old-World interiors.
